Letra Gorillaz – Interlude: The Non-Conformist Oath
And now, let’s repeat the Non-Conformist Oath!
I promise to be different!
I promise to be different!
I promise to be unique!
I promise to be unique!
I promise not to repeat things other people say!
(Audience cheers)
(Transition)
Don’t try to hide away
You know you’ve been on
Though I’m keeping calm, I’m not on
Go away, my love
Thought I could change our fate
I tried again, but this delay
It’s more than I can take
And it got to me
When you state your love
And you walk away
What could you be on?
Now you’re not around
But I hope you see
I will be full-on
If it’s up to me
It’s all I got
Feels so good doing me
If you take a look at the time you took and move on
But don’t go too far, my lover
We could try harder, baby
There’s gotta be a better way
So much that we could make it
And it got to me
When you state your love
But you run away
What could you be on?
Now you’re not around
But I hope you see
Gotta be full-on
It is up to me
It’s all I got
It’s all I got
It’s all I got
It’s all I got
Wish I could think of better ways
‘Cause I lost my patience yesterday
If you could see inside of me
There’d be no heart on my X-ray
Opponents tryna checkmate
But I don’t see no escape
Just tryna keep my head straight
On thin ice with the ice skates
At times, I feel like givin’ up
‘Cause it feels like I’ve had enough
Felt like my soul in handcuffs
Got questions with no answers
Can’t help me out, I need a friend
I’m losin’ faith in this world of sin
Tryna make ends meet with a week, no sleep
It’s like a cycle that never ends
I can’t contend with no handlin’
I can’t take care of no grown man
All by myself, cryin’ for help
But won’t get saved by no Superman
All comes down to the mighty dollar
Greed and lust, abusin’ power
Clock is tickin’, hour after hour
Maybe when I throw my hands, I’ll holla
And you got to me
When you state your love
But you run away
What could you be on?
Now you’re not around
But I hope you see
Gotta be full-on
It is up to me
